[Plugin: WordPress SEO by Yoast] Fatal error v.1.2.8

QA needs to be reprimanded. Developers are always innocent!

It worked for me as well, thanks a lot for the update, I’m very surprised how this mistake was made this plugin is among the top ones in wp and this happens, best of luck with the next update, but then again we all human beings, congrats on the great plugin.

I checked and I already have

update_option( ‘wpseo’, $options );

without any s in update_option, but it shows the fatal error. can anybody help me please!

It has to be the one on line 441. Do a text search for “update_options”

solved! sorry, i have 2 installations of WP on my site, was looking at a wrong directory ))

Fatal error: Call to undefined function update_options() in /wp-content/plugins/wordpress-seo/admin/class-admin.php on line 441

RE:KEXINO

Can confirm that changing line #441 to:

update_option( ‘wpseo’, $options );

instead of:

update_options( ‘wpseo’, $options ); (notice the “s”)

solves the problem.

Thank you!

Same problem here – very shoddy. Now, of course, considering uninstalling this plugin altogether and replacing it with something that doesn’t crash my whole install.

That’s hardly fair! Even plugin developers are human.

I think the people complaining about this plugin’s temporary issue should remember that this plugin is FREE and runs all of our websites! Thanks for the development and for the quick fix!

NOTE TO US ALL: Only upgrade plugins at 3am! ??

Agree with Chais, I am grateful for this plugin and thank and the Yoast team for providing it, upgrading it and fixing the issue so swiftly.
